A 30-year-old man who investigators say sexually assaulted an 11-year-old Marco Island girl, threatening to kill her during the rape if she told anyone about the attack, was arrested Tuesday night.
Marco police arrested Hicham Rhazouani of of 1786 Dogwood Drive, Marco Island, and charged him with sexual battery of a person under 12, burglary while armed and burglary with assault or battery. He was in custody Wednesday night at the Collier County jail on $200,000 bond, sheriff's officials say.
Police say the rape happened April 9 in the 1000 block of San Marco Road. The name of the victim isn't being published because of the nature of the case.
Arrest reports give this account:
Around 2:45 a.m., the girl said Rhazouani came into her room quietly and awakened her. She said she was half asleep and Rhazouani was whispering to her.
She said she could feel a small knife, which fit into his hand, held to her throat. He'd taken it from his rear pants pocket.
Before he raped her, he asked her how old she was and if she were a virgin. When the girl told him that she'd never had sex, he said, "It won't hurt. I'll be gentle."
He then sexually assaulted her, asking her where she went to school. He kept talking to her, trying to keep her quiet and threatening her by telling her he'd come back and kill her if she told anyone about the rape.
During the police investigation that night, officers learned that a white car had been seen across the street from the house. A Collier sheriff's K-9 tracking dog had picked up a scent in that area, between the girl's house and a house across the street.
Rhazouani had been chased out of the girl's house by a man who lived in the house, but Rhazouani got away, heading toward where the white car was parked.
Police questioned the owner of the house across the street, who said she rented to two foreign exchange students, whom she described as being from Egypt. Police earlier had learned that the girl's attacker was a man with an acdcent.
Last week, police interviewed a friend of Rhazouani who said Rhazouani was often out late at night drinking and hanging out at local bars and also stayed up late on the Internet. The friend also remembered seeing police at the girls home and said Rhazouani was at his home that night.
The friend's description matched that of the one given by the girl and the man who chased the suspect. Police interviewed Rhazouani who said he was staying at the house that night, that he would help and said he was "shocked that this could happen."
On Monday, police showed a photo lineup to the girl and the man who chased her suspected attacker,. Separately, each chose Rhazouani.
On Tuesday, police interviewed Rhazouani who was read his Miranda rights but who decided to talk to investigators.
He said he couldn't have committed the crime because of his religious belief. He was then told that his photo had been picked by the victim.
He then asked to confront them and prove that he is innocent. He kept declaring his innocence and when he was told there were bodily fluids that could be used to determine if he was the attacker, he stopped talking.
Rhazouani, a citizen of Morocco, said he wanted the government to provide him with an attorney and ended the interview.
I flagged this story to some local people and they at the time said "no big deal...it keeps the industry going for cheap labor", as for the owner of this particular Hilton that would be Olshan Inc. who owns it. Mr. Olshan would come to the resort about 2 weeks out of the year.
The thing is that Hicham was given a direct promotion after 9-11 to management. Now how many exchange students do YOU know that get a management gig? That were originally supposed to be there for only one year and leave? I have read through some of these replies and I can assure you...it was inded the F.B.I that had TOTAL 100% interest in this information and have scheduled follow up's.
The one field agent was irate...you could just feel it. Very interested in his martial arts training and weapons training.I can tell all of you...Hicham is one of the most methodical yet physically strong people you would ever encounter.I am not exaggerating at all here.Obviously I am not going to go into every detail of everything that has happened here but if someone has a site that they want to host another picture of Hicham on and then post it to here...freepmail me. I know I have a few of them and I am going to look for them.
Thanks for the freep mails and wishes. I appreciate it all. I have said for the last year...something was very very wrong with the entire situation...I was right.
Stay Tuned...

Please 'Ping' your lists. We need to get this animal's whole story out there, before his wealthy family can cover it up.
Thanks for making me #901 last time! ;^)

Link to their site. You will be even more furious when you read their spew.

Unleash hell.
Why, oh, why do we let them in, let them stay, and let them take advantage of our freedoms?
I say: Do away with all student visas. Let them get their "education" somewhere else. They are pigs. They despise us and they treat our women as if they were dirt. Raping an 11 yr old baby! I hope there's some vigilante action over this creep.
The GM aka Mac has not been seen in a few days or made any public appearances...sort of like he didn't do after 9-11. Current exchange students working in this Hilton on permanent work visa's are from the following countries:
Lebannon,Syria,Morroco,UK,Columbia.
Call all the local TV and radio stations so they can report it.
Guests will probably turn right around when they see this. Who wants to sleep in a hotel that hires rapists?
We can begin hurting their cash flow immediately while working the other angles as well. No mercy.
BTW, have you ever served your country in the military, or is that against a Libertarian's religious beliefs?
Thanks, nutmeg.
Congrats,MFH. Great work!
